JSONB

JSONB (JavaScript Object Notation Binary) is a data format used by databases to store structured information efficiently. Think of it as a flexible digital container that can hold complex data, like lists and key-value pairs, in a way that allows quick searching and manipulation. Unlike plain text JSON, JSONB is stored in a binary form, making it faster for databases to process and examine specific parts of the data without reading everything. It is ideal for applications needing dynamic, rich data storage with high performance.
